Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to optical lenses, and more particularly to optical lenses, such as wearable lenses, including contact lenses, implantable lenses, including intraocular lenses (IOLs) and any other type of device comprising an optical component that incorporates electronic circuits and associated antennas/antenna assemblies for information reception, information transmission and/or charging/energy harvesting.
  • optical lenses such as wearable lenses, including contact lenses, implantable lenses, including intraocular lenses (IOLs) and any other type of device comprising an optical component that incorporates electronic circuits and associated antennas/antenna assemblies for information reception, information transmission and/or charging/energy harvesting.
  • wearable or embeddable microelectronic devices for a variety of uses.
  • Such uses may include monitoring aspects of body chemistry, administering controlled dosages of medications or therapeutic agents via various mechanisms, including automatically, in response to measurements, or in response to external control signals, and augmenting the performance of organs or tissues.
  • Examples of such devices include glucose infusion pumps, pacemakers, defibrillators, ventricular assist devices and neurostimulators.
  • a new, particularly useful field of application is in ophthalmic wearable lenses and contact lenses.
  • a wearable lens may incorporate a lens assembly having an electronically adjustable focus to augment or enhance performance of the eye.
  • a wearable contact lens may incorporate electronic sensors to detect concentrations of particular chemicals in the precorneal (tear) film.
  • the use of embedded electronics in a lens assembly introduces a potential requirement for communication with the electronics and for a method of powering and/or re-energizing the electronics.
  • the electronics in these applications often may require a power source. Accordingly, it may be desirable to incorporate a self-contained power storage device such as a rechargeable battery or capacitor. Alternately, the electronics may be inductively powered from a distance rather than being powered from a self-contained power storage device, and thus there is no need for recharging.
  • An acceptable method for recharging a battery is through inductive coupling, whereby an external coil is magnetically coupled to a coil that is coupled to, connected to or otherwise associated with a charging circuit adapted to recharge the battery imbedded in the device. Accordingly, there exists a need for inductive structures, for example, antennas, antenna assemblies and/or coils appropriate for use in an optical lens assembly. Further, it is desirable to provide a convenient method for aligning the coil structure with an external inductive coil structure for efficient near-field coupling.
  • Embedding electronics and communication capability in a contact lens presents general challenges in a number of areas, including the limited size of the components, in particular the thickness as well as the maximum length and width, the limited energy storage capacity in batteries or super capacitators, the limited peak current consumption due to higher battery internal resistance in small batteries and limited charge storage in small capacitors, the limited average power consumption due to limited energy storage and the limited robustness and manufacturability of small and especially thin components.
  • specific challenges include limited antenna efficiency, which is directly related to size or area and for a loop antenna, the number of turns, and antenna efficiency.
  • the antennas and/or antenna assemblies of the present invention overcome the disadvantages as briefly set forth above.
  • the present invention is directed to an ophthalmic lens assembly.

  • the present invention is directed to a lens assembly.
  • the lens assembly comprising a lens, including an optic zone for at least one of image enhancement, image capture and vision correction, and one or more electronic components for enabling image enhancement, image capture and vision correction, and at least one antenna arrangement operatively associated with the one or more electronic components for providing at least one of one or two way communication with the one or more electronic components and power transfer.
  • the present invention is directed to a lens assembly.

While exemplary embodiments will be described with respect to contact lenses (wearable) or implantable lenses (IOLs), it is important to note that the present invention may be utilized in any number of related or non-related devices. Wearable or contact lenses may incorporate a lens assembly having electronically adjustable focus to augment the performance of the eye and/or it may incorporate electronic sensors to detect concentrations of particular chemicals in the tear film. The use of such embedded electronics in a lens assembly potentially introduces the need for one and/or two way communication, and for a method of powering the electronics or recharging a power storage device.
  • the antenna/antenna assembly of the present invention may be utilized to transmit and/or receive information and/or data as well as provide a means for charging the battery, batteries or capacitors utilized to power the electronics by inductive charging or radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting methods.
  • RF energy harvesting systems may be implemented where circuit operation is similar to inductive charging, but at higher frequencies, for example, 900 megahertz to 2.4 gigahertz.
  • inductive charging is often associated with low frequency, for example, 125 kilohertz or 13.5 megahertz, near field coupling to a coil-like structure and RF energy harvesting is associated with longer distance, lower power, higher frequency waves coupled to an RF antenna.
  • An exemplary optical lens assembly in accordance with the present invention may comprise a circuit board or substrate, an electronic circuit, a lens structure (optics) and an antenna structure.
  • the electronic circuit may comprise a number of electronic components mounted on the circuit board and the circuit board may provide wiring traces to interconnect the electronic components.
  • the circuit board may be mechanically attached to the lens to form a rigid component of the optical lens assembly. Alternately, the circuit board may not be mechanically attached to the lens and thus not form a rigid component of the optical lens assembly. This arrangement may vary depending on the type of lens.
  • the antenna structure or antenna may include a coil comprising one or more loops of wire mounted around and concentric with the lens structure.
  • the antenna may comprise one or more wiring traces on the circuit board.
  • the antenna may be electronically coupled to the electronic circuit.
  • the electronic circuit may provide a transmittal signal to the antenna in order to transmit an outgoing electromagnetic signal board on the transmit signal while in alternate exemplary embodiments, the antenna may receive incoming electromagnetic signal and provide a received signal to the electronic circuit.
  • the antenna may be utilized to transmit and receive signals.

  • the cleaning cases for contact lenses that utilize chemical or UV based disinfection systems, as well as any other types of devices capable of receiving text information, video information, telemetry information, graphics, software or code for reprogramming or updating, and the like via an RF or inductive wireless link.
  • the data or information to be transmitted or received may include tear film analysis, intra ocular pressure, heart rate, blood pressure and the like.
  • the ophthalmic device may be utilized to sense any number of parameters depending on the device application, for example, ciliary muscle contraction for an accommodating lens.
  • the output from the antenna or antenna system may be utilized to actuate or activate secondary devices for changing the optics of the device and to dispense drugs or therapeutic agents.
  • the antennas and antenna assemblies may be utilized, as stated above, to recharge batteries or for continuous powering from a remote source. This may be in the form of inductive powering rather than charging.
